Thu Nov 21 2024 | 18:44 | Chris Paul Good To Go Thursday |
San Antonio Spurs point guard Chris Paul (thumb) will suit up against Utah on Thursday. He's dealing with a left thumb injury but will be ready to play through it, with the team upgrading him from probable to available. After initially struggling in his new surroundings, Paul has performed well lately and is nicely set up for success on Thursday. San Antonio remains without Victor Wembanyama (knee) and Devin Vassell (knee), giving Paul more offensive responsibilities, while the Jazz tend to have a tough time against opposing point guards. |

Thu Nov 21 2024 | 09:30 | Chris Paul Considered Probable For Thursday's Game |
San Antonio Spurs point guard Chris Paul (thumb) is expected to remain in the lineup on Thursday versus Utah, with the team listing him as probable for the game. The veteran floor general hurt his left thumb against Oklahoma City but was able to finish the contest. It looks like it's not a very serious injury, and Paul will be good to go for Thursday's juicy matchup -- only Chicago and Washington have allowed more fantasy points to opposing points guards than Utah. Paul has bagged three double-doubles in his last five appearances, averaging 10.7 points and 8.5 assists for the season. |

Tue Oct 8 2024 | 17:25 | Chris Paul Suiting Up Versus Orlando On Wednesday |
Per Michael C. Wright of ESPN, San Antonio Spurs point guard Chris Paul will make his preseason debut on Wednesday after signing a one-year, $11 million contract with the team in the offseason. Paul's production has dipped significantly after being in the league for almost 20 years. He played in 58 games for Golden State in last year's campaign, averaging 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals. The 39-year-old's presence will be essential for the development of center Victor Wembanyama and the other young players on the team. |

Sun Jun 30 2024 | 21:44 | Chris Paul Signing With The Spurs |
Free agent guard Chris Paul will sign a one-year, $11 million contract with the San Antonio Spurs. After being in the league for nearly two decades, Paul's production has dipped significantly. He appeared in 58 games for the Warriors last season, finishing with averages of 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals. While the 39-year-old likely won't be a consistent producer for the up-and-coming Spurs, his presence will be invaluable for the development of reigning Rookie of the Year Victor Wembanyama and the rest of the young players on a team hoping at least to earn a Play-In bid in 2024-25. |

Fri Jun 28 2024 | 16:32 | Chris Paul Pushes Back Guaranteed Contract |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul has agreed to push back the date to his $30 million guaranteed contract for the 2024-2025 season. The veteran guard will push back the date until late Sunday night. Doing that gives the Warriors a chance to explore trade partners for the All-Star guard. Paul certainly isn't in his prime anymore, but he can still contribute to an NBA roster. He should still be able to be a viable fantasy option depending on what team decides to pick him up. |

Mon Jun 24 2024 | 09:30 | Chris Paul Expected To Draw Interest From Lakers And Clippers As Free Agent |
Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul has been linked with a move back to Los Angeles. NBA insider Marc Stein believes that Paul would draw interest from both the Clippers and Lakers if he hits free agency. However, he adds that interest in bringing him to the Lakers "might not be unanimous within the organization." The suggestion of Paul reuniting with the Clippers definitely raises a few eyebrows as well, especially if James Harden and Russell Westbrook stick around. Paul has a non-guaranteed $30 million contract for next season, and he would become a free agent if Golden State doesn't guarantee the contract by June 28. The 12-time All-Star remains a big name in the NBA, but his numbers have been declining for several years. Paul provided only 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals to fantasy managers off the Warriors bench in 2023-24. A starting role away from San Francisco could give his numbers a boost. |

Wed Apr 17 2024 | 10:30 | Steve Kerr Hopes Chris Paul Remains With The Warriors |
Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul is expected to remain with the team next season by head coach Steve Kerr. "I really hope we bring him back next year," Kerr said following Tuesday's 118-94 loss in the play-in tournament against Sacramento, which ended Golden State's season. It also ended Paul's run of 13 consecutive playoff appearances. The veteran, who will turn 39 next month, found himself as a bench piece for the first time in his career in 2023-24 and finished with career-low numbers in multiple areas. He had 9.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals across 26.4 minutes. Paul has a non-guaranteed $30 million contract for 2024-25. |

Mon Feb 26 2024 | 15:53 | Chris Paul Off Tuesdayâs Injury Report |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (hand) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Paul fully practiced last Wednesday and will re-enter the lineup on Tuesday following nearly two months on the shelf due to a fractured left hand. Likely facing minutes restrictions in his first matchup back, CP3 won't be a recommended DFS option, but the Wizards are giving up the most points per game (124.2) in the league. |

Thu Feb 22 2024 | 15:33 | Chris Paul Out Thursday But Nearing Return |
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr says guard Chris Paul (hand) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, but the veteran guard won't play on Thursday versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Paul is nearing a return from a fractured left hand, with his next chance to suit up coming on Friday against the Charlotte Hornets. Brandin Podziemski remains worth deploying against a Lakers team giving up the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing guards. |

Thu Feb 15 2024 | 08:47 | Chris Paul Making "Good Progress" |
Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul (hand) is making "good progress," the team announced on Wednesday. The 12-time All-Star has missed 16 games with a fractured left hand, but it looks like his comeback isn't far away anymore. Golden State added that Paul is expected to intensify his on-court activities after the All-Star break, and he will be re-evaluated again in 10 days. Paul's eventual return will be a blow to Brandin Podziemski's playing time. |

Wed Feb 7 2024 | 16:01 | Chris Paul, Gary Payton II Still Out But Progressing |
Golden State Warriors guards Chris Paul (hand) and Gary Payton II (hamstring) both remain out for Wednesday's tilt against the Philadelphia 76ers, but they are progressing from their respective injuries. While Payton returned to practice on Tuesday and is viewed as day-to-day with a strained left hamstring, Paul did some shooting and running following the session and is a bit further away from returning from a fractured left hand. CP3 is due to be re-evaluated in about a week, so he will remain off the floor until after the All-Star break in all likelihood. GPII, on the other hand, could return as soon as Saturday when Golden State hosts the Phoenix Suns. Rookie first-rounder Brandin Podziemski is locked into significant minutes in the Dubs backcourt, averaging 12.3 points on 51.1% shooting from the field, 6.9 rebounds, and 4.6 assists in 32.4 minutes through his last nine games. |

Tue Jan 30 2024 | 21:32 | Chris Paul To Be Re-Evaluated In Two Weeks |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (wrist) has been cleared to participate in on-court work. Paul underwent hand surgery in early January when it was announced that he would be re-evaluated in three weeks. The organization announced on Tuesday that Paul is going to be sidelined at least two more weeks. Fantasy managers who have Paul rostered will need to remain patient. The absence of Paul has opened up additional playing time for Brandin Podziemski and Cory Joseph. Podziemski has some low-end or deep league appeal with Paul sidelined. |

Tue Jan 9 2024 | 16:08 | Chris Paul Sidelined At Least Three Weeks |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (hand) underwent surgery on his left hand on Monday, and he will be re-evaluated in three weeks. ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Sunday that Paul is likely to miss four-to-six weeks, so fantasy managers can expect him to be shut down for at least the next three until another update presents itself. Injured during Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons, CP3 holds a career-low 8.9 points and 7.2 assists with 1.3 triples and 1.1 steals in 27.6 minutes per game covering 32 contests (11 starts) but should be stashed in the majority of leagues, considering dimes are difficult to find on waiver wires. Despite his recent struggles, rookie first-rounder Brandin Podziemski should be rostered at least until Draymond Green (suspension) returns to game action. |

Sun Jan 7 2024 | 15:32 | Chris Paul To Miss 4-6 Weeks After Surgery |
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (hand) will miss four-to-six weeks, with the timeline starting after he undergoes surgery next week. The veteran, averaging 8.9 points, 7.2 assists, and 1.1 steals this season, suffered a fractured left hand in Friday's win over the Detroit Pistons. Fortunately, Draymond Green was recently reinstated by the league after missing 12 games due to suspension, so that will help lessen the blow. Head coach Steve Kerr also indicated Moses Moody would get more minutes and is worth monitoring for those looking for a deep-league extended streaming option. |

Sat Jan 6 2024 | 01:15 | Chris Paul Fractures Hand, Needs Surgery |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (hand) was injured in Friday's win over Detroit and was ruled out after logging 24 minutes and finishing with eight points, six boards, and one block. Unfortunately, the team revealed that the 12-time All-Star suffered a fractured left hand and will undergo surgery next week. This isn't an ideal situation for Golden State, considering the team has also been without Draymond Green (suspension). At any rate, Paul has had his share of struggles in his first season with the Warriors, averaging a career-low 9.0 points. But his absence will at least open up minutes for others, with head coach Steve Kerr indicating Moses Moody would see more time at the one, meaning he's worth monitoring in all fantasy setups moving ahead. Regarding Paul, he can be dumped in re-draft formats, especially since it may be a while before he's back on the court. |

Sat Dec 30 2023 | 20:35 | Trayce Jackson-Davis, Chris Paul To Start On Saturday |
Golden State Warriors forward Trayce Jackson-Davis and guard Chris Paul will move into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Head coach Steve Kerr has decided to shake up the rotation. Kevon Looney and Brandin Podziemski will head to the bench, but should still have significant roles. Out of the bunch, Jackson-Davis has the most fantasy value and should be rostered in most fantasy formats if he keeps playing well in the starting unit. |

Tue Dec 19 2023 | 21:33 | Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul Active On Tuesday |
Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (illness) and guard Chris Paul (illness) will both suit up for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. It appears both players are dealing with minor illnesses, but that won't stop them from suiting up for this game. The expectation is that both players should be fully available for this game. They'll likely take on a bigger workload with Draymond Green still unavailable due to his suspension. Fantasy managers should double check their lineups to get Wiggins and Paul active both tip-off. |

Mon Dec 18 2023 | 22:00 | Chris Paul Questionable For Tuesday |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The veteran guard lands on the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. His presence is more important now with Draymond Green being suspended. Paul hasn't started any of the games Green has been absent, but his scoring and defense is useful with Green out. If Paul sits, Cory Joseph could be asked to play additional minutes during Tuesday's game. |

Tue Dec 12 2023 | 10:31 | Chris Paul Back For Warriors On Tuesday |
Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul (illness) is set to return to the lineup on Tuesday versus Phoenix after the team removed him from the injury report. The veteran floor general missed the last game with an illness, and he's also been nursing a lower leg problem in recent times. The Suns have been suspect defensively against opposing point guards, meaning Paul could have a field day on Tuesday, along with Stephen Curry. He has averaged 10.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 7.5 assists in 26.5 minutes across two meetings against his former team this season. |

Fri Dec 8 2023 | 19:33 | Chris Paul Out On Friday Night |
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) won't play on Friday night versus OKC. The veteran missed two games with a leg injury before returning for Wednesday's meeting with the Portland Trail Blazers. However, he's not feeling well, so he'll miss another one. Nevertheless, without Paul in the lineup, rookie Brandin Podziemski could have some streaming value for fantasy managers. At the same time, the 2023 first-round pick should see more interest in DFS contests as a value option. |
